How do I paint over Kitchen Cabinets that are glazed with Polyurethane?
The kitchen cabinets have a glaze on them. I want to paint them a different color. The cabinets are for a school cafeteria so it doesn't have to be perfect. What is the cheapest way to paint them over? Should I sand it first?

- You will have to do a light sanding and then apply kilz.
- Zinser 123 is a primer that you could put over that without having to sand first. Then just topcoat with a semi or high gloss latex paint.
- There is also a product called ''deglosser'' that may work. Also there is a paint called ''cabinet coat'' just for painting cabinets/furniture to leave a real smooth finish.
- Yes, sand first or the paint will not stick, use a primer then paint, you are good to go ... You could spray paint them but may get spendy if there are several as in more than 7 or 8 good luck
- Use TSP/90 Heavy Duty Cleaner. Sanding is quite the chore. TSP cleans & prepares surfaces for repainting.
